You've actually given me the idea to have a nice hot bath, so cheers, CT!

Don't jump in too quick, CT! Don't think Boldon's Emergency services are quite ready to react to a tsunami at this point in time, mate.

Match of the day = David Craig and a particularly bad looking Orc. Anyone tune into SSN? After we signed Cisse I put on SSN to see what they had on him, reports of it or anything. They waited right at the end of the hour till barely mentioning him before spending a good five or ten minutes of some clown standing in front of a large screen with different club crests on saying that "sky understands that the Tevez deal to AC Milan may not be dead" etc, etc. The same clown had been saying this for about three days, yet when an actual big transfer went through, i.e. Cisse to us, not only did they not have an inkling, but they also had no real desire to report on an actual transfer story. Sky are so shit its untrue. I've never heard them talk about cycling much, but when they do it's always about 'Team Sky' for some strange reason. Also love how they relentlessly try to push American football before announcing at the end of their report ".....And you can see the new england patriots take on chicago on sky sports 3 tonight at ten o'clock, live!". Nobody gives a fuck, man! Barely a mention of the African cup of nations which by a strange coincidence sky don't have the rights to. They do have some very smart young lasses* reading their 'news' though so that's ok. *Here's one I prepared earlier; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SlWkAbSlga0

TBF they were absolutely murdering us and should have been 4 or 5 up by the time Hendrie equalised. Made it all the sweeter though I remember seeing the goals on Northern Life on the monday but can't remember any highlights programme so have no idea where this vid was from. My pal who did go said the Liverpool fans turned from patronising clapping etc when they thought they were going to hammer us to hockling on Mags after the game and there were a few punches thrown after they all got out of Anfield. They didn't take defeat very well.

Reading this thread I'm slightly envious of those in a position to go ahead with it or who have tried to start their own business, I'm sure it must be scary at times but kudos to those who do it. I think Stevie is ready to go ahead but just wants a bit of encouragement as we all like a bit of moral support now and again. Good luck if you take it on, Stevie. (and I'm not a big fan of employment agencies if you remember).

You're not wrong, to be honest. For every Gazza, there's been 10 Ian Bogie's.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFOV1vlN7f8&feature=player_embedded Never seen highlights of this before, went to my first away games this season but missed this one and the feeling of elation was definitely mixed with jealousy as a few of my mates were there. As an aside, listen to Martin Tyler, just how biased does his commentary sound?

First day out of work and I'm pissed off and ratty already. (Hope Stevie's Dad has a successful op, by the way).

Talking of shite, there used to be a manager of a place I worked whose nickname was 'The Northumbrian Piper'. When I asked why, it turned out he had a colostamy bag in his stomach and he used to fiddle about with it like Katherine Tyckell or whatever she was called.

This "fan" was fucking livid when the ball hit the back of the net. We could've beat brighton but he persisted with wasting Jonas and Ben arfa in a 433 and taking a chance that brighton wouldn't get a lucky break. We have the makings of a good side, the two mancs are already out of the cup and this was a good opportunity for us to have a crack at actually winning the cup. Brighton didn't even have to play well to beat us. Not one ounce of me is happy that its another year added to our barren spell. Pardew's done a decent job but he played a big part in us getting knocked out last night.

Pardew can fuck right off after tonight after that. Sorry but they were there for the taking. Hope everyone wanks themselves dry at the 7th place victory parade.

It's all so quiet /Bjork = Anyone with kids.

Could be a movie double bill with 'The Fast and the Furious'

"the usual suspects"

For example; "Those were the days my friend" = Noelie, etc, etc

In M*A*S*H, the only US character who decided to stay in Korea after the war was Corporal Klinger, the same character that dressed as a woman throughout the show in a bid to get discharged from service so desperate was he to get out of Korea. (I know this because every single time I ever saw the programme in the presence of my Dad he would tell me this. EVERY TIME!)

I don't think CT realises just how fackin' 'orrible he can be.

Pardew has crept on the radar and being a Londoner and one that put them Geordies right is flavour of the month right now with the boys in fleet street, (only behind 'Arry who is always flavour of the month). Should we falter a bit later in the season then someone else will rise to prominence.

No, I don't think anyone is worried about that. That's a 'no' from me too.

May I enquire if it's had any visiters?

Where has the 'creche' forum appeared from? Whats the story?

This is a potentially tough game as I thought Brighton were doing canny, it's beyond a joke how shit we've done in the cups since I was a bairn, apart from that three year spell when we had two finals and a semi final we've been poor. We really, really need to give this a good go. 57 years is a fucking disgrace for a club of our size to go without winning it. I missed the Trelford Mills game but I was at SJP a couple of years later when they beat us again, pretty sure they were a 2nd div side as well, so I reckon we owe them one. For those saying 'I'd rather have 7th than win the cup', well, there's no reason why you can't do both, and unless we're in danger of relegation which we're obviously not, then the cup should be the priority. What does 7th mean? It means we've made good progress. What would a cup triumph mean? It would make us WINNERS. I want to see a Newcastle Utd Captain lift the trophy at Wembley like our Dads and Grandads did. It would mean more to us than it would to Man U/Chelsea/whoever.

4 por favor.
